Can you eat just one chip? (By the way my hubby says he can but he is lying!) Can you drink just one? That seems to be the more important question when it comes to beneficial alcohol and heart disease.

Ladies, ladies. I get so upset sometimes. We as women have to take better care of ourselves! I know there is so much to do and take care of, besides you, but it is so important. Just look at what the numbers are saying… I am just as guilty as the next women, I take […]

Would it be wrong if I admitted that I don’t have a clue what I ate yesterday? I am just being honest. I think I had a bowl Cheerios for breakfast yesterday and then I had some sort of food for lunch. My hubby can not even remember. I had a small baked potato with […]

It has been quiet around these parts huh??? We had a major network wide amount of downtime this week, if you hadn’t noticed, but we are back in action. Though it is always stressful when something like that happens it is also a bit welcomed. You get to stop and breath and take a bit […]

Bottom line… I need to get to the grocery store because I am so sick of the same old! My bloodsugars have been ok, not great not bad. They have been between 92 and 110 this week. I have gotten very little sleep and I do think that plays into it at times, especially when […]
